Definitions

  • This invention relates to an uncooked oat product having added ingredients that do not chip or fall off and methods of making such oat products. More particularly, the present invention relates to (1) an uncooked oat product comprising oat groats that have ingredients incorporated within the groats; and (2) an uncooked oat product comprising oat groats that have ingredients at least partially adsorbed on the groats.
  • the invention also relates to an uncooked corn product, wherein the endosperm (also called “grit”) component of the corn kernel, and not the entire kernel, comprises added ingredients that do not chip or fall off and methods of making such corn products. More particularly, in accordance with the invention, the inventive corn product comprises added ingredients that are either (1) incorporated within the corn endosperm or (2) adsorbed onto the corn endosperm surface.
  • This invention also relates, in particular, to methods of (a) incorporating ingredients into uncooked oat groats and (b) adsorbing ingredients at least partially onto the surface of uncooked oat groats.
  • oats Compared with other grains, oats offer a high concentration of protein, a good distribution of amino acids, and fiber.
  • Oat groats the component of oats without the hull that is used to form oat flakes—are reported to have a high protein concentration in the range of about 13.8% to 25.5% by weight. See, Oat, Ch. 10 by V. L. Young and R. A. Forsberg, in “Nutritional Quality of Cereal Grains: Genetic and Agronomic Improvement,” pp. 466-475, published by the American Society of Agronomy, Inc., Madison, Wis. (1987). Moreover, the amino acid composition of oat protein is good compared to other grains.
  • oats still have a higher concentration of this amino acid than is typically found in other grains.
  • rolled oat groats are a good fiber source as they contain about 1.1% crude fiber and thus provide about 0.3 grams of crude fiber per ounce of rolled oat groats.
  • one aspect of the present invention is an uncooked oat product that has no added fat and comprises uncooked oat groats having one or more added ingredients or materials infused or absorbed within the oat groats and/or adsorbed to the oat groat surface.
  • the ingredients comprise at least one material selected from the group consisting of nutrients, spices, and flavors.
  • the materials typically, on a dry weight basis, the materials have a relatively low concentration, in the range of from just slightly greater than about 0% (zero); e.g., about 0.0001%, to about 2% of the oat groat.
  • processes are provided for adding ingredients to the grain by either infusing the ingredients into the internal structure of the grain or adsorbing ingredients onto the surface of the grain.
  • Another aspect of the present invention is an uncooked oat product that has no added fat and comprises uncooked oat groats having ingredients or materials adsorbed, or at least partially adsorbed on the surface of the oat groat.
  • the added materials account for up to 1% by weight of the uncooked oat groat.
  • Still another aspect of the present invention is a method for infusing or incorporating desired ingredients inside the oat groats.
  • the method involves contacting uncooked oat groats with an aqueous solution containing the dissolved ingredient or material for a sufficient amount of time to allow the ingredient or material to become absorbed by and permeate the uncooked oat groat.
  • Also in accordance with the present invention is a method of adding ingredients or materials to uncooked oat groats so the materials become adsorbed on at least a portion of the surface of the oat groats.
  • This method involves essentially the same steps as the aforedescribed method.
  • the material may be water insoluble and is therefore substantially adsorbed on the surface rather than being absorbed within the oat groat.
  • both methods can be used to efficiently, inexpensively and uniformly add desired one or more ingredients to either cut or whole uncooked oat groats in which the resulting product is suitable for bulk packaging since the added ingredients do not separate, flake off or otherwise settle out.
  • the term “ingredient” means a substance other than water.
  • the present invention i.e., (1) the oat groat product having added ingredients or materials incorporated therein, (2) the oat groat product having added ingredients or materials adsorbed onto at least a portion of the surface of the oat groat, and (3) the methods for making such products—addresses the need for an oat groat product that utilizes the high protein content of oats, contains no added fat (if desired), and provides consistent product quality because the added ingredients or materials do not easily chip or fall off the oat product.
  • the invention also addresses the need for inexpensive methods for making such products, which can be subsequently flaked if desired, to form an uncooked flaked oat product having a desired ingredient or ingredients absorbed therein or adsorbed thereon.
  • the invention permits the addition of added ingredients to groats that have been previously dried without the necessity of a subsequent drying step after addition of the ingredients.
  • an uncooked corn endosperm product that contains no added fat and has ingredients incorporated into the corn endosperm or at least partially adsorbed onto the surface of the corn endosperm.
  • the invention also includes an inexpensive method of making such products.
  • FIG. 1 is a flow chart illustrating a method for incorporating ingredients into uncooked oat groats in accordance with the invention.
  • any source of oat groats can be used and any suitable process can be used to produce oat groats.
  • Oat groats can be obtained from oats in any manner known to those skilled in the art and in any desired size range.
  • the invention encompasses all forms of uncooked oat groats—i.e., whole groats and groats that have been cut. Throughout the following description, like numerals and letters refer to like parts or steps.
  • an oat product which comprises uncooked oat groats that have ingredients incorporated or infused therein, such as by absorption.
  • uncooked as applied to oats and corn means less than 10% gelatinized starch in the endosperm of that grain.
  • an oat product comprising uncooked oat groats that have ingredients adsorbed, or at least partially adsorbed, on the surface of the oat groats. Both embodiments of the inventive oat product advantageously minimize the possibility of the added ingredients chipping or breaking off the finished product.
  • the ingredients added to make either inventive oat product typically comprise at least one material selected from the group consisting of nutrients, flavors, and spices.
  • an ingredient When an ingredient is incorporated into the oat groat product, it is present at a concentration ranging from about slightly more than zero (0)% to about 2% by weight. The preferred amount will depend on the type of ingredient and the effect that is desired.
  • an ingredient When an ingredient is adsorbed onto the surface of the oat groat, it typically is present at a concentration of from about slightly more than zero (0)% to about 2% by weight of the oat groats on a dry weight basis.
  • a water soluble or dispersible ingredient e.g., a nutrient, flavor or spice
  • the ingredients can be either water soluble or insoluble; although if the ingredient is water soluble, absorption will also typically occur.
  • the nutrients used in accordance with the invention typically comprise at least one material selected from the group consisting of vitamins, minerals, natural nutrients, and mixtures thereof.
  • vitamins include vitamin A, beta-carotene, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B 6 , vitamin B 12 , vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, folic acid, and derivatives and mixtures thereof.
  • minerals include calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, molybdenum, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, zinc, and derivatives and mixtures thereof.
  • natural nutrients include Echinacea extract, gingko, ginseng, lecithin, bee pollen, St. John's wort extract, and mixtures thereof. Other materials may also be utilized.
  • “derivative” means a compound or material that contains or is derived from or a modified form of, the indicated material.
  • methods are provided for adding ingredients or materials to uncooked oat groats. Though preferably used with cut oat groats, the methods are also suited for use with whole oat groats. Typically, the methods are employed prior to steaming and/or flaking in order to condition the oat groats and add the desired ingredients. Both methods involve adding water to the oat groats, which preferably are first dried to a specified moisture content of about 6 to 9% or less, to increase their moisture content by about 1.5% or more on a dry weight basis or to achieve a water content of about 8 to 10% or more.
  • the grain is then held under predetermined conditions to allow the selected ingredients, usually mixed with the water, to become adsorbed onto or absorbed within the oat groat.
  • the selected ingredients are either dissolved or dispersed in the water, depending on their solubility, and the water acts as a vehicle for facilitating the adsorption and/or absorption of the ingredient onto the groat surface or into the groat, respectively.
  • Both methods thus offer the advantage of causing the ingredients to be in intimate contact with the oat groat interior and/or surface so that even after the groat has been further processed, such as by flaking, the ingredient remains in intimate contact with the groat and is thus resistant to becoming separated from the groat. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that ingredients become absorbed by and intimately associated with the groats in part by capillary action.
  • more water can be added, for example, up to about 20 or 25% or more to achieve a groat water content of about 30 or 35% or more, and the groats can be held for a longer time to allow the water to equilibrate therein followed by drying to a desired moisture content.
  • the additional water will result in a higher concentration of added ingredients in the final groat product.
  • One method in accordance with the invention absorbs the selected ingredients or materials inside the oat groat; another method causes the ingredients or materials to be adsorbed, or at least partially adsorbed, and bound onto the surface of the oat groat.
  • the ingredients identified above may be used with both inventive methods—i.e., nutrients, spices, and flavors. Absorption or adsorption depends on the solubility in water of the selected ingredient.
  • the method for incorporating one or more ingredients inside the oat groats comprises: (1) contacting uncooked oat groats, which may be supplied as a continuous feed stream of groats, with an aqueous infusion solution or medium, containing the ingredient(s), in an amount effective to cause ingredient absorption by the oat groats and to increase the final moisture content of the oat groats by from about 8% to about 10% or more.
  • a feed stream is provided that normally consists of uncooked oat groats that preferably have been dried to a moisture concentration of about 7% to about 8% on a dry weight basis.
  • oat groats Prior to drying, oat groats generally have a moisture concentration in the range of from about 11% to about 13% or more on a dry weight basis.
  • the aqueous solution which contains one or more of the selected ingredients or materials, is generally applied to the uncooked, unflaked oat groats, which preferably are first dried, at a concentration sufficient to result in the desired concentration of added ingredient in the resulting oat groat product.
  • the treated oat groats can be allowed to equilibrate for a sufficient time under conditions that effectively allow the aqueous solution to further permeate the internal structure of the oat groat and form the ingredient-containing groat product.
  • the infusion solution is prepared by mixing water with at least one material selected from the group consisting of nutrients, spices, and flavor. Prior to its application to the oat groats, the infusion solution is heated, such as up to about 120° F., to facilitate dissolution and/or dispersion of the ingredients and absorption by the groats.
  • the infused oat groat product typically has a moisture concentration of from about 8% to about 10% or more.
  • the added ingredient(s) typically account for up to about 2% on a dry weight basis of the infused oat groat product.
  • one or more ingredients are applied so that they become adsorbed or bound to the surface of the oat groat or onto at least a portion of the groat surface.
  • This method which can be batch or continuous, is typically used with ingredients or materials that are dispersible, but not dissolvable, in water.
  • the method can comprise (1) contacting the surface of uncooked oat groats (which may be supplied batchwise or as a continuous stream of groats) with an aqueous medium, dispersion or mixture, containing the selected material or ingredient for a time and in an amount effective to contact the oat groats and increase the final moisture content of the oat groats by from about 8% to about 10% and to allow and cause ingredient adsorption to the desired degree; and (2) preferably (optionally) equilibrating the coated oat groats for a sufficient amount of time to allow the aqueous medium, dispersion or mixture to become bound or adsorbed onto at least a portion of the surface of the oat groats to a desired uniform degree or amount.
  • the infusion mixture is applied to the surface of the oat groats at a concentration of from about 2% to about 29% by weight of the oat groats. Thereafter, optionally (3) drying the (equilibrated) oat groats to a desired moisture concentration to form the ingredient-containing groat. Equilibration helps to ensure that the ingredient adsorption has reached equilibrium and that a uniform amount of ingredient(s) has been adsorbed. Thereafter, the groats can be flaked by known methods, if desired, to form a flaked oat product with the added ingredient(s) adsorbed thereon.
  • the adsorption method can also be used with uncooked oat groats that have been dried, such as to a moisture content of about 7% to about 8% or less, on a dry weight basis.
  • the application step can, for example, deposit the aqueous mixture onto the oat groat in a concentration of from slightly more than about 0% to about 2% by weight of the coated oat groats. Equilibration can continue for a sufficient time and under conditions that permit the aqueous mixture to become further adsorbed or bound onto the oat groat surface or to permeate the oat groat just beneath its surface.
  • the equilibrated oat groat product Prior to drying, typically has a moisture concentration of up to about 35% or more. The added ingredients account for up to about 2% on a dry weight basis of the infused oat groat product.
  • the adsorption and absorption methods are not restricted to any particular equipment.
  • the infusion, equilibrating, and drying steps can be performed by any suitable manner known to those skilled in the art.
  • the infusion or applying step can be achieved by any suitable equipment known in the art, such as a screw conveyor system or a rotating drum and a spray applicator, for example.
  • Drying can be achieved by any suitable equipment, such as a kiln-type grain dryer (for oats), a continuous belt dryer or a fluidized bed, forced air dryer, for example.
  • Moisture equilibration can be performed by any suitable means known to those skilled in the art, such as by holding in a storage bin. Because these devices are well known to those skilled in the art, a detailed disclosure of such equipment is not provided here.
  • the methods of the present invention can be performed during the well-known conventional tempering of oats or corn, in preparation for further processing, such as flaking.
  • the drying step in both methods will typically be done at a temperature in the range of from about 150° F. to about 300° F. to reduce the moisture content of the oat groat product to about 8-10%, on a dry weight basis.
  • the finished oat groat product has a moisture content of about 8-10%, on a dry weight basis.
  • the following illustrates a method of incorporating a water-soluble butter flavor into uncooked oat groats that have been cut.
  • the process commences with feeding into a rotating drum a continuous stream A of dried, uncooked oat groats, having a moisture content of about 10.6% on a dry weight basis.
  • the dried oat groats are fed at a rate of about 615 lbs/hr.
  • the oat groats are coated with an infusion solution stream B comprising about 81.6% water, 12.3% salt, and about 6.1% butter flavor until the coated oat groats C have a moisture content of about 16.2% on a dry weight basis.
  • infusion solution B is applied at a rate of 72 lbs/hr with a spray applicator having three SU 16 nozzles, an air pressure of 17 psi and a pump pressure of 40 psi.
  • the coated oat groats stream C are tempered or conditioned—meaning that moisture equilibrates through the cut groats—before they are steamed and flaked. Because cut groats are thinner than whole groats, they absorb water more quickly and require less time for moisture to equilibrate.
  • the tempered oat groats are flaked to a thickness of about 0.018 inches.
  • the oat flakes stream D are subsequently cooled for about two minutes and fed via stream E for drying in a conveyor oven for four minutes at 200° F. at a depth of from one to three inches.
  • the flaked, oat groats stream F are cooled a second time for three minutes, yielding a finished butter-flavored oat groat product stream G having a moisture concentration of about 10.6%.
  • the foregoing process could be operated so that the moisture content resulting from infusion is in the range of about 8 to 10% on a dry weight basis to avoid the subsequent drying step.
  • both the adsorption and absorption methods described above can be used to treat uncooked corn endosperm so as to add ingredients either within the corn endosperm or onto the surface of the corn endosperm.
